Charleston Events

Every couple of days I am going to update a list of events coming up in my city by the sea, Charleston, South Carolina.

This weekend really kicks of the tourist season for most folks, including the carriage companies.

The Southeastern Wildlife Expo is this weekend Friday - Sunday, 10am - 6pm all over town. Since 1983 the city is filled with "Duck People" as we affectionately (or not) call them. Traffic will be a nightmare and if you want to eat dinner on the peninsula make your reservations now! There are vendors, crafts, fine art and demonstrations. My favorite is always the Retriever demonstrations (Saturday 10:30 & 3:00 at Marion Square)! I also think the Purina Dog Chow Incredible Dog Team will be cool, Saturday, 12noon at Marion Square This year Jack Hanna will be doing a demonstration Saturday, 3pm at The Gailliard Auditorium for more information you can go to www.sewe.com.

The LowCountry Blues Bash www.bluesbash.com has been going on since 2/10. Since 1991, national and local musicians have come together to lay it down for us at venues all over town, every night. Check out Tinsley Ellis (www.tinsleyellis.com) at The Pour House on Saturday, 2/18, with a great band called Delta Moon, opening up for him. www.charlestonpourhouse.com This place has been consistently bringing in great live music to the area. Check them out when you can.

The Citadel will be playing the College Of Charleston in basket ball at home on Thursday, 2/16. Back in the day, when I was at COC this was THE place to be, I imagine not much has changed. Game time 7:15
